Battery recharge
G11V is equipped for using a 7,4V Li-ion rechargeable battery pack which
can be recharged connecting the socket of the AC/DC wall adaptor to a
mains power socket and inserting the jack of the wall adaptor into the
desktop charger plug.
It takes 4-5 hours to fully recharge the radio.
For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the battery pack
when the G11V is off and the battery pack is fully discharged.
! Using a different battery charger other than the one specified can cau-
se damage to your device or may even cause explosions and personal
injuries.
The Battery power saving feature enables a reduction in consumption
of up to 50%. If it has been set, it comes on automatically when the tran-
sceiver does not receive any signal for more than 7 seconds in order to
save the battery life. Power saving can be set only through Programming
software.
